     _(r'''
    Mercurial supports several ways to specify individual
    revisions.

    A plain integer is treated as a revision number. Negative
    integers are treated as toplogical offsets from the tip, with
    -1 denoting the tip. As such, negative numbers are only useful
    if you've memorized your local tree numbers and want to save
    typing a single digit. This editor suggests copy and paste.

    A 40-digit hexadecimal string is treated as a unique revision
